Origin
Guy : 1: English (of Norman origin) and French: from a common Old French personal name Guy from ancient Germanic Wido a short form of compound names based on the element wid(u) ‘wood forest’ Latinized as Guido.2: English (of Norman origin): alternatively an occupational name for a guide Old French gui (a derivative of gui(d)er ‘to guide’ of ancient Germanic origin).3: Altered form of French Guay.
Hach : 1: German: nickname or occupational name from Middle High German hache ‘young man guy boy servant’.2: German: topographic name from Middle Low German hach Middle High German hac ‘hedge enclosure’ and possibly also from Low German hach ‘dirty water’.3: South German (Swabia): variant of Habig.4: Vietnamese (Hách): from the Chinese surname 郝 see Hao 1.
Hosp : German: from Latin argot hospes originally ‘innkeeper’ later used in the sense ‘strange guy odd bird’.
Macareno : Spanish: habitational name from the district of Puerta de la Macarena in Seville; the placename is of Arabic origin. The name of the district gave rise to a nickname macareno meaning ‘tough guy braggart’ and this may also be a source of the surname.
Machorro : Hispanic (Mexico) and Jewish (Sephardic): nickname from Spanish machorro ‘infertile’ also ‘tough guy badass’.
Trimmer : English (mainly Hampshire):: 1: occupational name from Middle English trimmer a derivative of the verb trimmen (Old English trymman) which had multiple meanings including ‘to strengthen confirm make ready’. The modern sense ‘to cut trim’ is not attested in Middle English literature but it is possible that the surname was for someone who cut something perhaps cloth.2: perhaps occasionally from the Middle English personal name Triamor of uncertain origin but found as the name of an Egyptian ruler in Alexandria in the medieval romance Guy of Warwick. It remained in use for many years in a Baldwin family from the Hertfordshire area.
Upex : of uncertain origin. Formally the name appears to be derived from Up Exe (‘settlement higher up the River Exe’) in Rewe (Devon) but there are no early surname forms to bear this out and it would also require migration of the surname from Devon to Northants. Alternatively it might be a variant of the lost surname Upwick with post-medieval excrescent -s. There is an Upwick (‘the upper dairy farm’) in Albury (Herts) from which Robert and Alice de Upwik 1307 in Subsidy Rolls (Albury Herts) and Guy de Upwyk' 1344 in Feet of Fines (Albury Herts) were named.
Wyatt : English:: 1: from the Middle English personal names Wiot or Wiet. These are often pet forms of Wy from ancient Germanic Wido (see Guy compare Wyand 1). Wy is the usual Norman French form of the name; the Parisian French form is Guy. Wiot was also used as a diminutive of William. As a surname Wyot(t) became Wyatt during the 16th century.2: in Suffolk this is sometimes a variant of Wyard from the Middle English personal name Wiard which is generally from Old English Wīgheard which is composed of the elements wīg ‘battle’ + heard ‘bold brave’. Occasionally it may be from Old French Wiard ancient Germanic Withard (see Viard).
